(From Fourth District Congressional Candidate Ricky Dana)Missouri’s 4th Congressional District isn’t defined by one city or one industry—it’s a patchwork of rural towns, county seats, small farms, local businesses, and military families.
From the lake communities in Benton County to the farmland of Lafayette County, from Cass County’s growing neighborhoods to Boone County’s historic towns, this district is a cross-section of rural America.
Everywhere I go, I hear the same thing: people are tired of the political fighting in Washington that gets in the way of solving real problems.
In Cass County, residents talk about roads, bridges, and law enforcement resources. In Lafayette County, it’s keeping our schools strong and protecting local jobs. Benton County leaders balance tourism with preserving Lake of the Ozarks’ natural resources. Boone County residents north of I-70 want broadband, road safety, and reliable senior services. Pulaski County needs federal support for infrastructure and community services tied to Fort Leonard Wood.
As a common-sense Democrat, I believe in working with anyone—Republican, Democrat, or Independent—who brings solutions that work for the people here at home. If elected, I’ll focus on expanding rural broadband, supporting agriculture and small business, protecting Social Security and Medicare, and ensuring our veterans and military families get the services they’ve earned.
Missouri’s 4th District deserves representation that listens first, acts with integrity, and works every day for the people—not the politics.

You go, sir! You have our support. Thank you!
I’ll always put Missouri, and Missourians first! Missouri Grown, Missouri Strong! 💪 I appreciate your support.
I will always stand up for Missourians, regardless of how they voted. Representing an entire district means working for everyone—listening, negotiating, and finding common ground to deliver real results for all.
Just say no to more republican butt puppets!
We're ready for authentic politicians who genuinely work independently of the usual maga fealty and dem BS. Sick and tired of the divisive brainwashed magat white America first and the democrats spineless and rudderless approach to governing. We the people deserve better than these losers.
You have a 0% chance of winning that district.
Alford puppet
Calling it “0%” isn’t just petty, it’s mathematically absurd. If it were truly zero, Alford fans wouldn’t be sweating him this much. Sounds like he’s already living rent-free in their heads.
I’m a common-sense Democrat, so MAGA has zero influence on me. And if the mainstream Democratic Party tries to push a vote that would hurt Missourians, I won’t vote with them. Bipartisanship—working together for real solutions—is the only way we get America back on track.
You’ve already admitted the comment was yours, which makes the intent clear. “Someone should check his harddrives” isn’t harmless banter — it’s an accusation any reasonable person would take as criminal. Word games after the fact don’t erase what you said. I’ve documented it, addressed it, and I’m moving on.
And yes, I can absolutely claim to be a “public figure. You not knowing me doesn’t change reality…
You claim I’m not a public figure, but the facts say otherwise.
I’m a declared candidate for the U.S. House in Missouri’s 4th District, which by law makes me a public figure. On top of that, I’ve been a performing artist for years — my stage persona is public at @imbillykaren on Instagram, where I have over 30,000 followers and reach more than a million views each month.
Also, Public figure status doesn’t mean people can fabricate criminal accusations without consequence. It means I’m open to public scrutiny about my work, not falsehoods about my character. I’ve been an activist on the internet for years. So welcome to the law, that applies equally to the internet, no matter how vague you try to make your comment… everyone knows exactly what you were insinuating.
